Amazing win for Indiana. That game winning touchdown was incredible!

Sigh. We unfortunate PSU fans were there, hoping it would be overturned. Nonetheless a good game.

I was pulling for the upset. I almost always do.

Well, we needed one and it all worked out but the brides family is from Minnesota, so they weren’t so happy. First a crazy Michigan win against Wisconsin than a crazy Bears victory against the Vikings.. They tend to mirror each other.

OK Michigan vs OSU. Should be interesting even with Michigan using their 3rd and 4ā€th level running backs and so many out with injuries. I will be in Michigan for Thanksgiving. We we not planning staying for THE Game. HmmmšŸ¤”

Jordan Hare’s Iron Bowl VooDoo rising! War Eagle, Baby! (nobody gets this but AU/UA fans, I know)

Craziest start to a ND game I’ve ever seen. 21-0 before offense even takes the field.

Also nice to see Steve Angeli welcomed back so warmly by the ND coach and team. Hoping he has a full recovery.

Fran Brown, the SU Coach, has quickly gone from hero to zero.

He had an unfortunate injury of starting QB and a young team. I hope he gets another year or two to build the program.

And Tennessee shuts down the Florida Gators in The Swamp!

Now on to the most important game of the year – the Vanderbilt Commodores. (Words that I thought I would never use in my lifetime.)

Congrats on the win over A&M!

Will be interesting to see how this plays out for y’all.

Thanks, girl! When I started this thread I said that a 10-2 Texas would make the playoffs. Now, I’m thinking a 9-3 Texas has a shot!

Sylvester Smith for Auburn - big play to prevent Alabama’s TD.
20-13 Alabama leads Auburn.

Edited to add:
Turnovers are a killer, aghh, poor Auburn.

I know. I was rooting for them… they were supposed to keep my Dawgs from playing Bama in the SEC Championship. haha

Thanks! So exciting. I went to a bunch of Texas - Texas A&M games over the years. I wish I had been at this one!

When I was in college, I visited a good friend at A&M. We went to the bonfire the night before and then the game, where I sat in the student section with her. Very odd! All the Aggies stand for the entire game (the ā€œ12th Manā€ tradition), except when the opposing team’s band plays. I was happy UT won that game. :sweat_smile:

They definitely make a very interesting case now don’t they. Especially if the committee goes by who they played and beat at the time they were ranked. I just don’t see it happening though.

Thoughts is Lane Kiffin?

Whether an NFL QB like Sam Darnold or coach like Kiffin, one year gets you a giant deal.

I’m not sure Kiffin is an upgrade over Kelly.

They owe one guy $54 mil (unless he offsets it with another job). Now sign someone to $80 mil +

Where’s the governor now ? Seems irresponsible to me.

Kiffin is a media wh**e who only thinks about himself. I hope that he is an utter failure at LSU. The whole thing makes me sick. I am not even an Old Miss fan. Now there are 2 schools who hate him. If old Miss wins the National Championship I hope his name is totally erased from Old Miss’s narrative.
